Bo can go wherever he wants at 8.5, that's too much and for too long... and I think he signed right away because he knows this year is an anomaly... don't get me wrong, I'm sure he will put out maximum effort for the Isles every minute he's on the ice, but all those tip goals? A sky high shooting percentage? Playing bumper on a stacked powerplay? No injuries (he usually gets hurt at least once a season)? He's just cashing in and I can't blame him.
Also it might only be $1M higher than Vancouver's offer... but it's a lot more when you factor in taxes. 20% vs almost 40%.... We are fucked trying to sign players to play in Canada.

It's funny that Bo said the stress is over when he doesn't even realize the stress he will have now.. Just think, he's the savior and will have to keep scoring the goals now. He can't go on 20 game goalless streaks like he has in the past, lets see him handle the stress from fans yelling at him for not doing the job he was paid for.

I don't know the Canucks with an early lead isn't really a surprise it's the score at the end of the game that is the problem.

I don't even have to watch the game, just the scoreboard on tsn.com is entertaining enough

Hockey is not their number one sport. I dont think it even cracks the top 3. Media down there cover more NFL, MLB, NBA.
